Hi all,

Was wondering if anyone has tried using medical grade soda lime on their Co2 scrubbers?
Im currently using the BRS stuff, works ok in the first few days. Increased ph about .2 but i notice the color doesn't really change consistently so i dont really have a visual cue of when to change it. I have to rely on a ph dip to change it. Im currently running a recirculating setup with an inline moisture trap which helps extend it but perhaps the Medical stuff is better at absorbing and actually changing colors.. Thanks everyone!

Jorvet works better and color changes is worlds better.

You can get it direct or from Shopmedvet cheaper than Amazon
